The Bachelor: Hantlers Edition

I liked her...but she was stupid to do pig nose entry... obviously insulted Chris and his farming roots.

According to CelebrityNetWorth, Chris is worth and estimated $1.5 million. In addition to working on his own farm in Arlington, Iowa (and he reportedly owns “plenty of acres” in his home state), Chris does Farm Management at Summit Farms. The Bachelor is also billed as a “Farmland Investment Specialist,” aka he’s got his hands full with big money.
And that’s still not all. Prince Farming also dabbles in real estate, working as a licensed broker in the state of Iowa.

If you're a farmer, and you dabble in other businesses like that, you're not much of a farmer.

Pretty much anybody who owns farmable land in Iowa is a millionaire, that's no accomplishment. Guaranteed this dude is up to his eyeballs in debt.
 
1.5M is good money. Not a ton but probably equivalent to almost 5M out here in NJ.

Not really. He's worth 1.5 million. Ground in Iowa is getting up to around $10,000/acre. Dude owns at most, 150 acres. Actually, less. Figure equipment is gonna be around minimum of $500,000. So he has maybe 100-150 acres. In Iowa. This guy is one of the poorest "farmers" in Iowa.

I think he mentioned during preview that he started with few acres and now he has over few thousand of them. So something does not compute.

A few thousand acres = 3-4000. I'll do 3,000 to be kind to him.

3000 acres, worth 1.5 million. I'll pretend he doesn't own equipment, again, to be kind to him. That would make his land worth $500/acre. You cannot buy land for $500/acre in Iowa. It is impossible.

So basically, he's full of ****.
 
Huh? 1.5M out in Iowa is equivalent to about 5M out here. Probably more like 3-4M really but much more nonetheless. It's all relative.


What I'm trying to say is that he probably doesn't have 1.5M on hand. All of his assets may equal up to that, but I'd be willing to bet he has a lot of debt. I'm a farmer, I know how farmers operate. Farmers are always worth a lot of money, but are typically always cash poor. Everything they make goes towards paying fert, seed, and equipment. Get what saying?

Yep. Gotcha.
 
Ok, who watched second episode? I think it just confirmed that Chris is dumb as a brick. Unless ABC paid him to keep Ashley S. there is no other explanation why would he do it. She is ugly bitch and has nutbar factor 6 ( based on Mr. Wonderful nutbar scale). So ABC must keep some interest in drama going and I bet paid him a bit more to keep her for few more episodes. Otherwise it makes no sense whatsoever. And LMAO at Ashley "The Virgin" -if she is a virgin than I am a pope.

I have to imagine they have some say in who stays. Every season there are a few that get way way wayyyyyyy farther than they should just because they are crazy. My buddy is Jef (with one F) from Bachelorrette fame. I'll ask him if he knows anything about that.
